After fiercely advocating for him for months, Lauren Boebert voted today for fellow extremist and House Freedom Caucus founder Jim Jordan for speaker in the chaotic, ongoing GOP leadership fight.
Boebert and her “mentor” Speaker candidate Jim Jordan now have the greenlight to push their extreme, dangerous agenda that:
- Defunds federal law enforcement.
- Passes a nationwide abortion ban with no exceptions.
- Repeals investments that are creating good-paying jobs and reinvigorating American manufacturing.
DCCC Spokesperson Mallory Payne:
“Lauren Boebert has once again proven herself to be one of the most extreme members of her party, spearheading the effort to give extremist Jim Jordan the speaker’s gavel and push an agenda of promoting conspiracy theories, taking away women’s reproductive freedom, and defunding law enforcement. Coloradans will resoundingly reject this extremism next year in favor of Democrats’ focus on expanding the middle class and protecting our freedoms.”
